At 99, Dick Van Dyke proves age is just a number in rare new photo
Dick Van Dyke, the legendary star of “Mary Poppins,” is approaching his 100th birthday this December. Remarkably, he remains in excellent health and continues to maintain an active lifestyle.
The actor credits his longevity to a consistent workout routine. He has exercised three times a week for as long as he can remember and still visits the gym regularly at age 99.
Van Dyke’s gym sessions are uniquely energetic. He is known to dance his way between weight machines, combining physical exercise with his characteristic joy and movement.
His fitness regimen doesn’t end at the gym. After his workouts, he often returns home to swim laps, followed by a nap to recuperate.
In celebration of his centennial year, Van Dyke is releasing a new book. Titled “100 Rules for Living to 100: An Optimist’s Guide to a Happy Life,” it will share his personal stories and life advice.
A recent photo posted on social media confirms his vibrant condition. The picture, taken at a Malibu gym, shows a cheerful and healthy Van Dyke alongside artist Rick Springfield.
Springfield marveled at the 99-year-old’s energy, noting that he concluded his chest press workout with a little dance. This inspiring glimpse proves that Dick Van Dyke continues to live his life with incredible vitality.
